Chapter 1318: Hot‑blooded College Guy, Online Zombie Slayer 40

The trunk door was opened, and the laboratory's security personnel, following the doctor's request, brought the captured person into the operating room for virus implantation.

As long as they are infected with the virus, no matter how fierce their nature, they must obediently stay with me to preserve their lives.

From outside the carriage, the doctor's mocking voice could still be faintly heard, growing more distant, completely unconcerned that Jiang Chen might wake up with the strength to escape.

The security personnel opened the car door, instantly stiffening, silently knocked down by Jin Chen and losing breath.

Jin Chen carried Jiang Chen and jumped off the truck, searching the security personnel's pockets; besides the identical wristband, he found two additional access cards.

It seems that for the laboratory, the security personnel's rank is higher than that of the outsourced assassins, which is also quite strange.

Jin Chen finished his silent sigh inwardly, stepped over the corpse, and followed the old doctor's pace.

Inside the laboratory, the doctor was shaking hands with the head supervisor, while researchers lined up waiting to shake hands.

"On the way back, I heard you brought another so‑called genius doctor; you must give him a good lesson and not let him escape."

"Rest assured, I've brought out so many 'excellent' researchers; I'm not afraid of any dissent."

The person in charge was very satisfied with the doctor's answer, shaking hands with each researcher, as if completely unaware of their fearful and numb gazes.

All researchers have been infected with the zombie virus; they must cooperate with all of the old doctor's research.

Even knowing that this does nothing for humanity and may even accelerate the activity of the virus's growth factor inside zombies, turning what were once the living dead into monsters far more terrifying than vengeful ghosts.

But if they don't do this, they will die.

Here the researchers live each day in guilt, but under the old doctor's oppression and threats, not to mention rebellion, even the courage to commit suicide has vanished completely.

After meeting the head supervisor today, they are about to begin the next stage of research; each person's face is written with rejection and numbness, and they didn't even notice someone behind them.

The head supervisor, smiling, shook hands with them one by one, then suddenly his palms grew hot.

Strange, how could someone infected with the virus have such a high temperature?

The person in charge frowned and looked up, meeting Jin Chen's cold‑smirking gaze: "Hello, nice to meet you, you bastard."

His lazy, carefree voice drew the attention of all the researchers; they hadn't heard such a lively human voice in a long time.

The instant the head supervisor reacted, Jin Chen seized his neck, lifted him off the ground by his feet, his eyes wide with shock and panic.

How could anyone break in! The laboratory's security system is the strictest in the entire Huaxia region!

"Boss!" Security personnel immediately rushed over, running while drawing their guns and aiming at Jin Chen.

"Don't move, or I'll kill him now." Jin Chen curled his lips in a smile, practically writing the word 'provocation' on his face: "Your gatekeepers are useless, and your security system is just as bad."

Having temporarily placed Jiang Chen in a safe zone, Jin Chen had no weaknesses here, appearing relaxed and carefree, yet the killing intent and chill in his eyes still made people shiver.

As soon as he spoke, all security personnel froze instantly, forming a encirclement around Jin Chen, their expressions tense.

"Who are you! What is your purpose in kidnapping me?"

The head supervisor tried to stay calm and communicate with Jin Chen: "If you have any conditions, feel free to propose them."

Jin Chen glanced at the astonished old doctor, slightly raised his chin, and said, "That old immortal has taken my wife and still wants to turn her into some kind of worker."

He then slowly lowered his gaze at the head supervisor, whose expression had drastically changed, his voice cold.

"So, what do you think?"

Silence was especially clamorous at this moment.

The head supervisor glared at the old doctor under his breath, inwardly annoyed that even this small matter wasn't handled cleanly.

"Don't get agitated, don't get agitated; any opinions can be raised, the work done under me isn't clean, I'll just..."

"Kill him!" The old doctor's command came faster than the person in charge's admonition.

The security personnel hesitated no longer and immediately began firing.

"Yo, you've been abandoned." Jin Chen, utterly infuriating, glanced at the blood‑less face of the person in charge, grabbed him with one hand as a shield, and quickly approached the inner gate of the laboratory base.

"You can't kill me!! I'm the project investor!"

The person in charge still tried to roar in anger, but the old doctor shook his head, stubborn: "You don't understand; the project is most important."

As his words fell, the old doctor pressed the call button hidden in his pocket, and the crystal element activated immediately.

The low growls of zombies came from every corner; the outside world remained deep in the zombie crisis, and the laboratory had already used low‑level, unevolved zombies as enforcers.

Jin Chen was once again surrounded by zombies.

The person in charge died in the security personnel's bullets.

This scene unfolded quickly; even the numb researchers were frightened, and those who tried to flee in the chaos would soon suffer viral onset, turning from healthy people into shuffling monsters in just a few short seconds.

The old doctor leaned on his cane, eyes full of appreciation as he watched the chaotic hall, smiling with pleasure.

Until his gaze shifted and he saw Jin Chen's actions, his smile instantly froze at the bottom of his eyes, and he could clearly hear the sharp intakes of breath from a few core team members behind him.

The bright white tiles were stained red with blood; Jin Chen, surrounded by zombies, did not die as they expected, but stood in place, his ruthless means driving blade after blade into their skulls.

Like harvesting sunflowers, chopping off the zombies' iron heads was easier than cutting through clay.

Jin Chen sensed being watched, without hesitation looked back, his gaze fierce and languid, the overhead light revealing his face speckled with a few drops of dark‑red blood.

Beneath his indifferent expression lay a chill as if from hell.

The old doctor's hand gripping his cane trembled slightly.

Just what is this person's background! He keeps shattering my understanding time and again!

Jin Chen tossed aside the last low‑level zombie corpse, slowly approached the old doctor, the cold smile at his lips deepening.

In the hall filled with chaotic screams, the old doctor inexplicably read the lip‑movement Jin Chen had spoken.

He said, "It's your turn."

The old doctor's breath halted, and he finally felt a hint of fear.

"Quick! Quick! Summon fiercer zombies!"

Just then, the hall's door was pushed open again; the messenger stared at the scene, and after a long while said, "Doc… doctor, the SA Research Institute team has come…"

Jin Chen came to his senses and looked at him: "What are they here for?"

The SA Research Institute won't also be in league with this bunch of experimental dogs, right! Then humanity would be finished!

In the few seconds of silence that the messenger fell into out of fear, Jin Chen had already figured out that if the plot went wrong, the apocalypse wouldn't end anytime soon, so he would take his wife to a more secluded deep mountain forest to live in seclusion!

"People from the SA Research Institute said…… they want to use scarce research results to exchange virus reports with us, to quickly resolve the apocalypse and zombies." The messenger felt this person was not easy to deal with, and could only respond nervously.

"Oh. Is that so."

Jin Chen clicked his tongue.

【... How do you still feel it's a bit of a pity?】 0731 Youyou complained.

Jin Chen's face immediately tightened, 【Nonsense!】

After all, the laboratory still maintains an image of benefiting humanity outwardly, so it's no wonder the SA researchers think they can cooperate.

Jin Chen pondered, grabbed the doctor's collar and dragged him outside, not forgetting to reply to the messenger, "Let them come in to meet, just say I agreed."

Messenger: "……Ah?"

So who are you anyway! What gives you the right to order me!

I just won't……

He turned his head and glanced at the corpses covering the floor; the hall resembled hell.

It's probably all the work of that person who suddenly appeared.

Then I'll just… obediently listen.
